Chapter 131 [Robbing People]
Yanzhou.
On the official road, a team is marching.
The carriage at the back was filled with all kinds of gifts.
On the way back to Beijing, officials of all ranks from all over the place came to see him off wherever he passed.
In fact, seeing each other off is fake, giving gifts is real, and establishing relationships is also real.
Moreover, some officials' places of work were not in the places where Li Chengqian would pass when he returned to Beijing, but they still managed to make all kinds of "coincidences" happen.
There are all kinds of gifts to be given in different ways.
Even just for a chance to show up in front of him.
Li Chengqian accepted all the gifts.
However, the names of all officials are recorded in the register.
The corrupt officials in Qing Kingdom have long been deeply rooted.
In this regard, Li Chengqian has long wanted to rectify the situation since he became regent.
Now, just think of it as planting a chess piece.
In the future, everything will be settled one by one.
The things among corrupt officials are like dust in the corners, which need to be cleaned regularly.
Otherwise, there will only be more and more.
Corrupt officials are often the kind of people who can most corrupt the foundation of a country.
If it is not eliminated, it will only become more corrupt.
In the carriage, Li Yunrui looked at the list in his hand and smiled charmingly, "They are all parasites."
Hearing this, Li Chengqian looked at her in surprise.
Unexpectedly, she also knew that these were the parasites of the country.
“Actually, you are the biggest one.
If I'm not mistaken, the inner treasury has suffered a huge deficit over the years, right?"
Li Yunrui looked up in surprise, seeming shocked. How did he know that?
After all, she was the only one who knew about the inner treasury.
Even the Ming family doesn't know too many details.
Li Yunrui was silent for a while and asked, "How do you know?"
Li Chengqian smiled and said, "After all, it is very expensive to maintain a private army."
"you!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yunrui stood up quickly.
However, it hit the roof of the carriage.
She didn't expect that Li Chengqian also knew about this.
This matter is extremely secretive.
Even among the Second Prince’s confidants, only a handful of people knew about it.
So, how did Li Chengqian know that?
At this moment, Li Yunrui suddenly felt that all his secrets were clearly visible in his eyes.
terrible!
People like this are truly terrifying.
She really wanted to ask what was going on that Li Chengqian didn't know.
The more he came into contact with him and the more he understood him, the more afraid Li Yunrui became of this young man.
She couldn't imagine what would happen to her if she became his enemy.
"So... my second brother is already under your control!"
Thinking of this possibility, Li Yunrui's eyes widened in fear.
This thought simply frightened her.
If this is true, then why is the Second Prince still opposing Li Chengqian?
After trying to understand the key, Li Yunrui was completely shocked by his own thought.
Moreover, my back felt cold.
There's a creepy, hair-standing-on-the-head feeling of fear.
Li Yunrui took a deep breath.
The amount of information in this incident was too much of a shock for her.
The teacher returned to the court.
Outside Kyoto.
The welcoming team was unprecedentedly grand.
All civil and military officials arrived.
The second prince, Lin Ruofu, the six ministers and others, almost all came.
"His Royal Highness!"
Even from a distance, Li Chengqian heard a familiar voice.
Xin Qiwu!
The funny man who believed that negotiation requires the magnanimity of a great power.
After all, he was also under the command of the Eastern Palace. Now that Li Chengqian had returned victorious, he naturally had to come to greet him.
The streets were crowded with Kyoto people.
It was natural that everyone came to welcome Li Chengqian after he destroyed Japan and made another military achievement.
However, these many people came to watch the show.
After all, the prince of our country captured the saint of the enemy country.
This kind of thing makes me proud!
Moreover, this is a big melon.
It is human nature to like eating melons.
Haitang Duoduo was captured. Compared to the dark clouds in Northern Qi, the situation in Qing Kingdom was just the opposite. They were overjoyed.
"See His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Li Chengqian got off the carriage and immediately fell to his knees.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince on his triumphant return!" the Second Prince stepped forward and said.
These congratulations are truly sincere.
During this period, the second prince was really worried that the crown prince would die outside.
If that were the case, he would not be able to survive.
Not far away, in the crowd, Fan Ruoruo, Lin Wan'er, and Ye Ling'er all came to greet the prince.
Watching from a distance, not getting close.
Compared with congratulations, the six ministries of the imperial court were more concerned about whether they could obtain the right to interrogate Haitang Duoduo.
Therefore, before Li Chengqian returned to the palace, the six ministries of the imperial court had already requested orders.
When these people need to take responsibility, they run faster than each other.
However, seeing the benefits, they flocked to it again.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Haitang Duoduo suddenly felt a chill in her heart.
She knew clearly that she had been captured and taken to the capital of Northern Qi.
Although there is no danger to one's life, physical pain is inevitable.
After all, as the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi, she must have a lot of information.
Very valuable!
If we can find out the truth through interrogation, it will be a great achievement.
Therefore, if she fell into the hands of these people, her fate would be unimaginable.
If Si Lili is arrested, people from the six ministries will definitely compete for her.
However, compared to Lili, Haitang Duoduo is twice as arrogant.
Therefore, looking at Haitang Duoduo at this moment, officials from the six ministries all saw a path to promotion.
Haitang Duoduo also felt uneasy.
If she fell into the hands of these people, she would definitely end up in a miserable state.
So she couldn't help but look at Li Chengqian.
But soon, she gave up the idea.
Although Li Chengqian was the crown prince, he sometimes had to compromise when facing civil and military officials.
Moreover, the value of the intelligence she holds is extremely important.
Therefore, Li Chengqian definitely cannot protect her.
Thinking of this, Si Lili's heart sank to the bottom.
Now, she was afraid that she could not escape.
The death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of life imprisonment cannot be avoided.
During criminal detention and interrogation, physical pain is inevitable.
If she were an ordinary woman, Li Chengqian might be able to protect her.
But, she is the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi.
As noble as her status was in Northern Qi, she became just as important in Qing.
In order to obtain all the information she knows, the Inspection Bureau or the officials from the six ministries will definitely stop at nothing.
The way those people looked at her at this moment said it all.
I wish I could just swallow her up.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help feeling a little desperate and couldn't help but sigh.
Although Li Chengqian was powerful, he was certainly helpless in some major matters and had no say in them.
For example, what happened to her is a big deal!
Officials from the six ministries and the Inspection Bureau all came.
The one who came from the Inspection Institute is a chief, Zhu Ge!
"Your Highness, please hand Haitang Duoduo over to the Inspection Institute. I promise that within three days, the results will be out."
Zhu Ge stood in front of Li Chengqian and bowed slightly.
At the same time, officials from the six ministries of the imperial court also spoke out, wanting to obtain the right to interrogate.
Looking at the six ministries and officials from the Inspection Institute who came to ask for orders, Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly drew out the Emperor's Sword.
"If anyone wants to snatch someone from me, stand out and let me see!"
At that moment, all officials were silent.
